Hey Steve. I’m guessing the “Surf” theme is a placeholder? It doesn’t seem to do anything.

Will you consider building Lemmy search into the app? https://www.search-lemmy.com/ I feel like this could be a really useful tool

The sounds used for up/downvotes aren’t all that pleasant, if I’m being honest. Maybe it’s the volume, maybe it’s something else.

A third option for “view” in the main page would be great. Right now we either have the full view with a larger photo and article preview, or a really condensed one with the thumbnail on the left and a headline.
Not sure what it would look like, but maybe something in between the 2?
Also, a full BLACK/Dark mode would be great. Right now, some of the app still has a grayer UI in some spots.
lovley app but the keyboard wont appear when i reply ( iphone 11 ios 17)
Can you try the latest build and let me know if it still persists?
Hi, I found another bug: my replies in comments are not being shown under the right parent.
Here’s how it’s shown on Liftoff (and on the web page):

And here’s what’s on Bean:

Thanks again for your app

Changelog: July 31st
Build 2023.07.31.17.18
- Fixed a bug that caused the app to crash if metadata could not be fetched.
- GIFs are no longer animated in the list view and only within the ImageViewer. This was causing a massive memory issue that crashed not only Bean but also Springboard.
- Added a new theme: Twinkle.
- Added context menus to posts — press and hold.
Since I didn’t get the previous build via TestFlight, I’ve got a request on one of the changes from that one: Can we get some haptic feedback for the press and hold pop up account changer? For some reason, it feels like it should be there to me.
Yeah, I’ll look at adding that.
I’m going to be improving this in the coming days as it looks like the conversion from UIImage -> SDAnimatedImage is blocking the UI thread currently.
I’ll push that to a separate queue, show a loading indicator on the ImageViewer and add a badge to show that it’s a GIF.
But… at least I’m not crashing Springboard any more 🙈

I love the look of this app! I’ve been trying all of them, and have so far kept going back to Memmy. But this one has the potential to take over! I will be watching with great interest!
This username appears weird
It should be like this (screen shotted from Memmy)
Quite impressed so far :) Some feedback:
- More compact comments would be nice
- voting on a comment sometimes leads to automatic scrolling back to the parent comment (happened when tapping through to a post via inbox)
- scrolling has some hiccups

Some links have way too long of a preview. Is there a way to cut it off? This is on the feed.
